Step-by-Step Guide Needed: Setting Up OpenVPN with IPv6 on a Windows Server

Post by zeus64 » Tue Aug 08, 2023 11:23 am

I'm a beginner with IPv6 and OpenVPN and need assistance with setting up OpenVPN on a Windows server to operate with IPv6. My internet provider has provided me with IPv6, but I'm unsure of the steps to configure OpenVPN to work with it on my computer.

Furthermore, I've observed that the IPv6 addresses assigned to devices behind my router seem public and can be seen on https://test-ipv6.com/. This confuses me because, with IPv4, usually only the router's IP is publicly visible while the router performs NAT for the devices behind it.

Could someone kindly guide me through the basics and provide a step-by-step protocol on how to get OpenVPN running with IPv6 on a Windows machine? I'm completely new to this and would appreciate any insights.

Thank you so much for your help!
